Thursday was the qualifying day of the NCAA championship in Omaha, Neb. The eight teams bowl nine games (four team games and five Baker games) to determine seeding for the final two days of the event, and the Hawks, who entered the tournament as the No. 2 team in the country, qualified as the seven seed.
"We struggled, a lot of other teams struggled in the Baker (games)," UMES coach Sharon Brummell said. "Hopefully, (Friday) we'll just be a better Baker team than our opponent." The Hawks bowled team games of 954, 902, 862 and 887 in the morning, then bowled Baker games of 723, 763, 706, 791 and 689 for a pinfall total of 7,277.
